The Toorallie story began almost 200 years ago in 1825 when George Garnock arrived in Australia from Scotland. After a decade of working with the Macarthur family to develop Australia's first Merino stud, George decided to go out on his own and realise his lifelong ambition to produce the finest Merino wool in Australia.
Toorallie started out manufacturing jumpers in the nearby country town of Bombala, utilising the historic Olympia Theatre. With a massive investment in state of the art Japanese machinery, Toorallie's first success came from pioneering the three dimensional Hi-Tec knitwear of the time. Proving hugely popular this set the brand up to expand quickly with broad brand recognition and international distribution.
